Not only the beauty of the teeth, but also the health of the periodontium and mucous membranes in general depends on the quality of oral hygiene. A high-quality toothpaste will help you cope with beginning dental problems. It eliminates pathogenic microorganisms that have a detrimental effect on oral health and helps maintain fresh breath for a long time. One of the popular pastes for oral care is Parodontol. The advantages, indications, contraindications for using the product, as well as its varieties, will be discussed in more detail in the article.
Purpose and application
Compared to regular toothpastes, therapeutic and prophylactic toothpastes are slightly different in composition. Additional ingredients include infusions and extracts of plants, vitamins and microelements, salts and enzymes.
In order to understand the variety of such products on the Russian markets, it is necessary first of all to pay attention to their composition, properties and indications for use.
Many of them combine synthetic foaming and highly active fluoride compounds, which, along with their benefits, can be harmful to the body as a whole. In fact, they kill both pathogenic and healthy microflora of the oral cavity at the same time (which can lead to dysbiosis).
Pastes with natural ingredients have a great advantage: they contain a reasonable amount of elements that cleanse well and help in treatment, but do not in any way affect the general condition of the body. One of the leading positions is occupied by Parodontax, a toothpaste from a UK manufacturer.
Assortment for children
Children's toothpastes do not contain allergens, sugar, fluoride, parabens, or sodium lauryl sulfates. All products are created on the basis of a soft cleansing formula that provides gentle care for the child’s oral cavity. The enamel structure is not damaged, the health of the first teeth is preserved.
All products in the series have an anti-inflammatory effect and protect against early caries in baby teeth, which subsequently threatens the health of permanent teeth.
All children's products have a pleasant taste and aroma of fruit, ice cream, and chewing gum. There are no contraindications based on age.
The main caveat is that brushing your teeth should be done under the strict supervision of your parents. For one application, use no more than a pea-sized amount of paste.
The series includes the following pastes:
- with strawberry aroma;
- fruit icecream;
- bubble gum;
- Disney Babyc 0+ - with banana flavor;
- Disney Babyc 0+ - with strawberry flavor.
Brushing your teeth should be done twice a day for two minutes. To teach your child to maintain oral hygiene, at first it is better to brush his teeth with him, thereby showing him by example the importance of this activity.
Compound
The majority of the Parodontax toothpaste consists of herbal ingredients, which are ideal for the prevention of gum disease and have remained unchanged for 40 years during the production of this product. They provide the following effects:
- Echinacea is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory . It increases the body's resistance, so it will help get rid of pathogenic flora in the oral cavity.
- Myrrh – protective . The high gum content in this plant helps strengthen gums and eliminate bleeding.
- Chamomile – soothing, anti-inflammatory and tonic . The most popular plant in folk medicine: it helps reduce tooth sensitivity, relieves and alleviates inflammation, and promotes healing of oral mucosal tissue.
- Rataniya – tonic . The rhizomes of this plant have astringent properties, so the gums become firmer and more elastic.
- Mint is deodorizing and anti-inflammatory . The best product for fresh breath. In addition, it helps relieve inflammation and pain.
- Sage – cleansing and strengthening.
Two components act as antibacterial protection:
- Sodium fluoride is necessary to activate the process of remineralization of damaged teeth, which the body cannot cope with on its own. That is, it saturates tooth enamel with minerals and helps restore its strength and density.
- Sodium bicarbonate is considered a good antiseptic, so it helps fight the presence of unpleasant odors and has a slight whitening effect.
Due to the very specific composition and lack of sweeteners, the taste of this paste differs significantly from standard products. Instead of the usual sweet sensation, it gives a strong salty taste (due to the minerals and salts it contains).
But if you use it regularly, then you get used to such unusual and not entirely pleasant sensations: the manufacturer promises that this will happen after the first week. The composition does not contain the usual parabens and glycols, so the paste does not foam very much.
In addition, the color of the paste is also far from the classic white and blue shades. It has a reddish-pink color, but not due to an excess of coloring agents, but due to a natural mineral dye.
Therefore, the Parodontax line can rightfully be considered useful, effective and have a more harmless composition compared to classic pastes.
Parodontax Extra Fresh
This type of paste contains peppermint, which provides fresh breath after brushing your teeth for the whole day. In addition, the plant has an analgesic and calming effect, which is useful for gum inflammation. The swelling of the mucous membranes decreases, the discomfort and feeling of fullness disappears, and bleeding due to mechanical irritation of tissues decreases.
Paradontax Extra Fresh contains fluoride, herbal ingredients and bicarbonate of soda. Xanthan gum promotes the formation of a protective film on the surface of teeth and gums, which is not washed away by saliva. This barrier prevents pathogenic microorganisms from infecting the soft tissues of the alveolar process and prevents carigenic bacteria from damaging the enamel.
How does it work?
The effectiveness of Parodontax paste has been tested and confirmed more than once by clinical studies of dental centers and specialized scientific institutions around the world. Therefore, it is recognized as one of the best remedies in the fight against gingivitis and periodontal disease.
But there is one small nuance - it helps to cope only with the external manifestations of these diseases . That is, with the help of Parodontax it is impossible to cure the cause of inflammation and bleeding (most often these are stones and hard plaque).
This can lead to the fact that all external signs decrease slightly, and the disease will pass in a latent form until the teeth begin to “move”.
Therefore, if you have any problems with the oral cavity, you must definitely go to the dentist and find out an accurate diagnosis. It is he who can recommend not only the use of therapeutic and prophylactic pastes, but also prescribe special medications and teach proper hygiene, non-compliance with which in most cases is the root cause of diseases.
If you use Parodontax regularly, you will notice significant improvements:
- The risk of caries is reduced.
- Damage to the gums and mucous membranes heals.
- Pain sensations are relieved.
- The plaque on the teeth is removed, and the appearance of a new one becomes impossible.
- It helps cope with bleeding gums.
Point of view
Experts' opinions and consumer reviews about Parodontol toothpastes.
All products represent a whole range of therapeutic and prophylactic agents. Pastas for children that do not contain fluoride and sugar deserve special attention. To preserve baby teeth, you should not expose them to these substances again.
Pediatric dentist
I often use different toothpastes. I try not to dwell on any one. I periodically take Parodontol Sensitive. I like it, it foams well, effectively removes plaque, my teeth become smooth and smell good.
Alina, 28
At one time I was seriously tormented by problems with my gums. They were constantly inflamed and very painful. Silver Prof helped me out a lot.
Already on the third day of use, I felt relief; after a week, my gums stopped hurting altogether. Therefore, I can’t say anything bad, but I can advise a hundred times.

Instructions for use
First of all, Parodontax toothpaste is suitable for people who suffer from bleeding gums. But it can be used both as a caries prevention and for everyday oral hygiene. The maximum amount of use is three times a day.
Despite the fact that such a paste is a good preventive measure, it is absolutely not suitable for children's teeth. Due to the high fluorine content (1400 ppm), it cannot be used by children under 12 years of age, since for them the acceptable level of this component is 200-500 ppm.
Parodontax Classic
This type of toothpaste does not contain fluoride. Extracts of medicinal herbs have a therapeutic and preventive effect against gum inflammation, normalize the natural microflora in the oral cavity, suppressing the growth and reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms. This is ensured by mineral salt, which is a natural antiseptic.
Paste from the Paradontax classic series is approved for daily use, treatment of gingivitis, periodontitis, periodontal disease, removal of bacterial plaque, and protection of teeth from caries.
Varieties
Among the line of therapeutic and prophylactic toothpastes, there are several types of this product:
With fluoride (Fluoride)

Presented by the manufacturer in two versions: a tube of 50 ml and 75 ml in white and green colors.
A distinctive feature of this paste is a moderate amount of fluoride (0.14%), which is necessary for dental health. It helps prevent caries (inhibits the growth of microbes) and strengthens damaged tooth enamel (makes it more resistant to various acids).
In most regions of Russia, drinking water contains too low a concentration of fluoride, so dentists recommend using fluoride-containing toothpastes.
But for those people who take fluoride-containing medications, it is better to consult a dentist before purchasing this version of Parodontax paste.
Herbal and mineral extracts in this toothpaste help solve problems with gum disease and freshen breath, but at the same time give a specific salty taste.

Fluoride-free (Classic)

This remedy is suitable for eliminating bleeding gums and inflammation . A distinctive feature is the absence of such a component as fluorine.
It is recommended to use it for residents of regions where drinking water already has an excess of fluorides in its composition (more than 1 mg/l). These include the cities of Western Siberia, the Urals and some areas of the Moscow and Tambov regions.
In order to more accurately find out which regions of Russia are characterized by increased indicators, special tables have been developed for the content of this element in water. They can be found freely available on the Internet.
This mandatory condition for use is due to the fact that excessive fluorine content in the body leads to its intoxication, that is, poisoning. In all other cases, the use of toothpaste without fluoride is unjustified and even ineffective in protecting tooth enamel.
On sale you can find tubes of 50 and 75 ml in white and red colors. Like the previous option, it has a salty taste.
Gentle whitening

Contains fluoride. Available in white and silver tubes of 50 and 75 ml.
Extra Fresh

Essentially, it has the same purpose, but the percentage of mint extracts in the composition has been increased, so it has an even more refreshing effect. In addition, the design of the packaging (50 and 70 ml) is also different - in white and blue colors.
